Gaurav thinks Arun Shourie ought to be the BJP’s candidate for prime minister. I have great admiration for Shourie especially as a Parliamentarian and his consistent thought of national interest at heart. Truly, there arent many like him today. Here is his speech in the Rajya Sabha...

The Prime Ministers post perhaps demands someone with a "base" in the party, media, the minds of people etc. but if you think thats a good idea, details here..."Draft Arun Shourie"
